  • Abstract
    A 500 GHz bandwidth GaAs MMIC sampling wafer probe is reported which incorporates a mechanical flexure and a micromachined GaAs IC for time domain on-wafer measurements. The GaAs IC incorporates a novel high speed pulse sharpener and a two-diode sampling bridge with a micromachined GaAs tip.
